Fun With Freeware 1

PERSONAL MIND ORGANISER

 

PMO is both freeware and shareware at the same time, the freeware version allowing a maximum of fifty entries in any one database, sufficient for our needs and, we suspect, for many people's. At installation you are offered the opportunity to try it out for thirty days before deciding whether to stick with the freeware version or upgrade, or you can make your choice immediately if you prefer.

 

Information is contained in one or more password-protected Microsoft Access 2000 databases, but you do not need to have Access 2000 to use it. The information is divided into 20 customisable collections and an unlimited number of categories. Personal Mind Organiser displays stored information not only as a grid or list, but also as a calendar, a tree map, a tag map, a random map, or a slide show of random items, complete with auto-tiling, drag and drop, and various kinds of animation.
When Honor Mission tried this program on Windows 98 S.E., the installer detected some outdated files and offered to replace them with newer ones, explaining that the system must be restarted before set-up could continue, once these files were in place. A fair number of files went into the system, all of which were readily absorbed. After Windows had restarted, we had to return to setup.exe and the install went smoothly, leaving a single shortcut on the Start Menu. Bruno Cancellieri had advised that this might happen in his notes.
